Remembering The Victims Of Sichuan Province, Chinese Day Of Family Mourning April 04




A grieving mother cries for her child that perished at Beichuan Middle School on the 12 May, more than 700 children perished---more than 80,000 people were killed during last year's devastating Sichuan Earthquake.

Another mother walks through the rubble being assisted by relatives. Photos of school children are placed in remembrance of the many children who perished at Fuxin No. 2 Primary School in Wufu, Sichuan Province, a young girl mourns her classmates.

China's population will swell soon with the traditional Chinese Day of Family Mourning on the 04 April.

On the 25 February, I wrote here that a wall map of China survived the 8.0 earthquake at Beichuan Middle School.

Contrary to the public announcement that the water was safe to drink subsequent to the earthquake, a huge benzene chemical spill contaminated drinking water which Chinese authorities failed to tell the survivors.
